Wallace still made an impact on offense. His presence forced constant double-teams from Cleveland's defense. That allowed other Miami receivers, such as Brian Hartline (nine catches, 114 yards) and Brandon Gibson (seven catches, 77 yards), to produce against single coverage.

I think Mike Wallace has to look himself in the mirror today and say, “What a dumb thing I said yesterday about being ticked to not be a key guy in the gameplan. We won.

Salguero: Much is being made of Mike Wallace's attitude regarding the game plan after the game. In truth, he got more snaps than either Brian Hartlineor Brandon Gibson while still getting targeted fewer times and catching fewer passes.Dolphins’ receivers dropped four passes, with Brandon Gibson leading the way with 2 drops. Wallace also tripped mid route on a deep post down the middle of the field which eventually went over his head.
